Global Silicon Drift X-Ray Detectors Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Silicon Drift X-Ray Detectors market size is expected to reach $ 63.29 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 4.2% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Like other solid state X-ray detectors, silicon drift detectors measure the energy of an incoming photon by the amount of ionization it produces in the detector material. This varying ionization produces varying charge, which the detector electronics measure for each incoming photon. In the SDD, this material is high purity silicon with a very low leakage current. The high purity allows for the use of Peltier cooling instead of the traditional liquid nitrogen. The major distinguishing feature of a SDD is the transversal field generated by a series of ring electrodes that causes charge carriers to 'drift' to a small collection electrode. The 'drift' concept of the SDD (which was imported from particle physics) allows significantly higher count rates coupled with a very low capacitance of the detector.
Global key players of Silicon Drift X-Ray Detectors include Ketek GmbH, Hitachi High-Technologies, Amptek (AMETEK) and Thermo Fisher, etc. Global top four manufacturers hold a share over 60%. Europe is the largest producer of Silicon Drift X-Ray Detectors, followed by United States and Japan.
